These materials examine the most important aspects of pension, profit-sharing, welfare, and other compensation plans, including recent developments. The authors analyze in depth recently enacted legislation and recently issued and anticipated Treasury regulations and other guidance. The materials also cover recent employee benefits litigation, including cash balance plans, recent important court decisions on ERISA issues, split-dollar life insurance, and new design solutions for qualified plans of small employers. The discussions throughout are transactional, dealing with "how to do it" and not offering merely an explanation of the law itself.
